Course overview
In the 6-week accelerator you'll learn the step-by-step process to create your premium flagship course AND receive the 1:1 feedback, accountability and implementation support from Gwen to launch with confidence.
You'll go through the accelerator with a small group of talented experts, for additional accountability, learning and support.

The In-Demand Professional
You've great at what you do. You've wanted to create a course for years, but it's been on the backburner.
02
The Popular Creator

03
The Trusted Company
You're an agency or small team eager to scale your education with a paid course or free academy.
Instead of hiring an agency or a full-time course producer, work with me for a 6-week sprint to create and sell your signature course.
Decisions and design for the curriculum, course format, worksheets, community, assignments have been created. Using Gwen's tested templates and teachings will help you accelerate the process.
Course enrollment is open and you're making sales (easily paying off the investment in this course).
You can officially start teaching when it's right for you, but you can start accepting sales now.
On average you'll have a 2% enrollment rate with your audience. Based on your launch goals, you'll design and execute a promotion plan that helps you achieve your goal.
An essential course is the transformational work that will change the course of a students' life. The testimonials and rave reviews are a natural bi-product.
The Essential Course is intended to become the cornerstone of your business revenue. Launch, learn and continue to improve and scale your your education business.
